Mods please move to the college or draft section if you see fit. I have not seen anyone on the boards mention this incredible play by Moreno over the weekend. Talk about some athletic ability on this kid. Check out the vid. http://www.collegefootballtalk.com/2008/09/08/knowshon-moreno-might-not-even-be-human/
He is such a fantastic all around great back. However, that was such a stupid *** thing to do. I hope Richt ripped him a new one for that. He's too important for GA to risk injury on such a dumb move. RB 101, stay on your damn feet.
Agree he is a great back. Agree he'll have a great future. And agree it was a great move. But it's not the first time I've seen such a move. But still, great vid.
Exactly what I was going to say all that jump did was create further to fall and risk injury it's just a stupid stunt. That jump got him exactly squat in the end.
Best back in college football! Beanie is not even is the top 5 rb's in college!!!! j/k Maj you probably flipped out of ur chair
Nope. Richt was cheerleading this clip. He wondered publically why ESPN didn't include it in their top ten plays. ESPN then threw Fox Sports under the bus (saying they didn't include it in their highlight reel) FS then countered. So he threw them all under the bus. I didn't think the play was all that btw. Overhyped a bit. I was thinking he juked someone out of their shoes. That's more impressive to me, but hey, that's just me.
Some people never learn. It is possible to have two great backs you know. What "fact check" would you be referring too that proves Beanie is better? Its all a matter of opinion. And thats coming from someone who thinks Beanie is the top back, but Moreno is very close IMO. I understand anyone that would have them reversed. Don't act like its such a insult.
I think there is no question their the top tier but Beanie when Healthy and he hasn't been healthy is a MONSTER!, The Speed, the power, Moreno is quicker but doesn't have that power that Beanie does, I would rather have Moreno as a all-around back, but speaking pure runningback then I'd take Beanie. We'll see how the season progresses though if Moreno runs over every SEC team then you may crown him best back in the nation. I don't know how well he did as the season went on. I admit I acted like a TOTAL *** right there sorry about that folks. Sometimes I don't think rationally :P
He was pretty much the reason Georgia themselves turned it on late in the season, unfortunately I believe the Florida game was the turning point. Thats why alot of people were interested to see what he would do this season being the feature back for the whole season.
Tis a different year though I also want to say I'm still trying not be a huge homer so if I start to sound crazy don't be afraid to knock some sense into me
damn did anyone just see that touchdown he just got against arizona state? he just leaped from the 4 yard line and looked like reggie bush out there. that was really nice. boys got hops
is his last name really pronounced Marino like Brents saying??? shouldnt it be Mor-n-o??? its freaking driving me crazy....
